Cool! The fact that you reached self-hosting is especially great. I am also building a programming language with AI assistance, but I have not reached the self-hosted stage yet. That is a serious milestone.

Good job. I found that AI wasn't very useful for the self hosting stage, it was good for the initial stage0 compiler written in Rust, but when rewriting stage0 -> stage1 it would just hallucinate language features, so I ended up having to do it myself. It was fun though, since the language is the perfect programming language in my view.
